Requires person offering digital coupon to make available in-store alternative of identical value.

AI Summary

This bill requires a person offering a digital coupon for the sale of goods or services at retail to also make available an in-store alternative that would allow the consumer to obtain the same product, service, or benefit at the same price, discount, or on the same terms as the digital coupon. The bill defines "digital coupon" as a coupon offered through the internet and only obtainable through a consumer's personal computing device, and "in-store alternative" as providing the consumer with the ability to obtain the same discounted price or other benefit through alternative methods at the store location, such as paper coupons or electronic kiosks. The bill also establishes civil penalties for violations and authorizes the Director of the Division of Consumer Affairs to adopt rules and regulations to implement the act, which would take effect on the first day of the twelfth month following enactment.
